Hello, everyone; I hope you all are doing well. I am here to share my participation in Steemit Engagement Challenge Season 22, week 1. Even though I don't know this field I try to answer all the questions.

Say in your own words and based on what was explained in class: What is law?

According to me, Law is the driving force of a society, OR it's a set of principles that govern the society. It's the force that is made to run the society smoothly. Usually, Laws are made from the common norms and principles of a society. For example, people in Europe will make laws according to their norms and traditions, Asian people will have their own and countries in Africa will have their laws according to their traditions.

Let me explain it through a perfect example. In Europe, you can sell Alcohol openly, and you can drink it without any restrictions, but in my country, Pakistan, the situation isn't like that. It's completely illegal to make, sell or drink alcohol. See, it's the same thing, but different territories have different mindsets of people with different norms and principles; that's why their laws are different.

In part 1 The objective law is the citizen must have to follow the traffic rules. It's his obligation and mandatory for him to respect it and follow it. While subjective law is he is taking his child to the hospital. It is has right to be given proper health care and treatment.

Based on what you have explained in class, make a comparison and according to the law of your country. Give an example of a law and an example of a norm.

In part 2 Mr. Juan Perez is violating the law in many ways. First, he is not paying his due rent on time; he is guilty to the owner of his apartment. Second, he is the culprit for having four dogs in a place where it's prohibited.

Now, Mr. Juan is violating Substantive Law because he has to be a polite citizen in society. You can't harm anyone through any means. Now, there is a chance that his neighbours might have a problem with the barking sounds of the dogs, which creates noise pollution for them.

If I compare this example to my country, Mr. Juan Perez is guilty of not paying the rent; he is violating the law. You can't do so here in my country. If you live in an apartment, you have to pay its rent by any means. The second thing is keeping dogs and disturbing his neighbours; it's something against norms and principles. It's considered something unethical in my country if you do so ( teasing or disturbing someone).

Explain in your own words what importance Comparative Law has for you according to what you have seen in class.

Let me explain first what comparative law is. In comparative law, we compare the laws of different countries for better assessment, and it's fair output. The comparison aim is to pick good things from it and avoid its flaws.

Let's talk about transgender rights in our country. It was the first time they were given the right to vote in 2018 before they didn't have any permission to cast their vote. In advanced and modern countries like the UK, USA, Canada and many others, there they were given these rights for too long. I have heard many times on TV our parliament members saying, if modern countries give them the right to vote why can't we?

I believe they do have the right to vote, and I completely agree with this step. So, in short, I can claim that, here, comparative law has facilities for us. We have too many other laws we have acquired from modern countries, like women's laws, constitutional laws, educational reforms and many other things.


This was all about my participation. I hope you all like it and share your valuable comments. I would like to invite my friends @drhira, @m-fdo and @yahnel to share their participation.
